some nice wheels like multispokes or paint the mo's

Nice, would look well nice with black wheels, but still looks great, red gsi's are the way forward

Thats a nice GSi you got there.
One thing i dont get is why people buy GSi's then rip them apart and put redtops in them.
Why waste a future classic ?
If it was mine personally i would just do a few subtle mods and kept it spotless

umm well I heard those motors respond well to powerboxes so I'd chuck one of those on, along with a remap and raised rev limit, remove that irmscher badge as it don't look right, semi-smooth the boot, just clean up the wheels as they look sweet and generally keep it nice
